Bud Light Lime

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Fruit Beer
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Where to begin? This "beer" tastes like a strong shot of lime juice with maybe a hint of beer. If you like lime juice, maybe this is the beer for you, but if you’re a beer fan, stay away. Whatever you do, stay away.

I’m gonna go ahead and be a little more generous with this one than everyone else. This is a pounding beer. Something you just slosh through on a hot summer’s day. Yet somehow it works because the lime is so pronounced it gets rid of the normal bud light crappiness. Worth a try but really just go get a good beer and lime it yourself.

Bottle. Almost identical to Miller Chill, except the lime is even more evident. This is a good thing, because it makes it easier to facilitate the delusion that you’re not really drinking something that’s supposed to taste remotely like an actual beer.

12 oz. bottle. I won’t damn the yuppie purgatory I had this at by naming it, since they also has two Gooses on tap. Color is okay as a lager, a slight ring of foam. Smell is nondescript, misses even the "beer" smell of a normal macro, but a hint of lime is there. Tastes like a Malto Goya watered down with Canfield’s lime seltzer. Fizzy without real redemption.

I wish I could take points away for how bad this beer tastes. The aroma is actually serviceable, but the flavor was just putrid.

room service in my st. louis hotel (don’t ask what i paid for it). very effervescent clear yellow, scummy white little bubble head, no lacing to mention. aroma is sprite, maybe 7up; very off-putting. weird fake lime flavor, fizz, perhaps a hint of grain, but no beer flavor. palate: fizzies!! very disturbing. not a drain pour, but as close as i’ve gotten to one recently. also, it was served with a lime. what’s the deal with that?

The lime smell and flavor add a little bit of something to the mix, but this is still bud light. Proceed accordingly.

Smells a bit like lime, which is okay. Almost no flavour whatsover, with subtle hints of lime. Basically just carbonated weak lime water.
